    Ok, so i downloaded the latest one from the OP, and tried to install the IR4, but since i have Linux as well, when rebooted into the RE, i got X:\Windows\System32, so i tried C:IR4,D:IR4,E:IR4,F:IR4 etc, but it didnt work..
    Hope u can look into this..
    Thanks..:)

    Hey Timesurfer, remember me?...lol.

    well, tried your tool yesterday on one of my machines and am really really impressed with how smoothly it runs. Congratulations and keep up the good work.

    Just wanted to ask what happens when I uninstall this? Does it restore the WPA reg key to what it found at install? or does it just delete the trial key? and what about the trial nags? Idea is what all I need to do to to do the same thing manually from RE after uninstalling IR4. Sorry if the question has already been answered.

    Wha :eek:...How could I forget you ;) When you uninstall IR4 it does two things.

    1. It reverts registry setting as to reimplement nags :eek:
    2. It deletes rearm task

    It leaves your trial key installed ;)

    The rearms stay the same ;)

    e.g. If you have 4 rearms 4 days left in your Grace Period Status then after IR4 uninstall you'll have same rearms, etc...

    IR4 basically works around the 30 days trial and after all rearms and days left are gone then spend 2-5 minutes reinstalling IR4 to get your 4 rearms 30 days back ;)

    I personally think that IR4 would require lesser of newer versions simply because of the fact that rearm commands do not change much and IR4 automates and makes it a lot easier. Perhaps some nice photos of Bill and Steve giving two thumbs up like on some other sites would make the process more entertaining.

    Thanks man. No, I have no intention of removing IR4, its too convenient for lazy bums like me.
